similar to: FW: How to delay before mounting root filesystem

Got to minimize (barely) my filesystem and kernel and fit it into my usb key (256mb) My kernel was compiles with scsi and usb support built-in. My problem now is i can't mount my root filesystem when i tried to boot. kernel somehow takes time before being able to recognize my usb as a valid scsi device thus displaying VFS: Cannot open root device 08:01 this is my lilo.conf boot=/dev/sda

Out of necessity, a friend of mine and I have created a patch for syslinux to allow it to modify the mbr and partition table in windows. It adds a -m option to syslinux. If given, it will overwrite the MBR of the drive specified with the mbr.bin provided in syslinux, and if the bootable flag is not set on the partition being syslinuxed, it will set it. This was done to distribute with my USB

hi ya syslinuxerz - i've been slowly working on a making a custom bootable standalone usb-stick with X11 and kde - it's basically builds itself off of a slackware-10.1 server - create a custom initrd.gz ( /dev/ram0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/InitRD/ - create a custom rootfs.gz ( /dev/loop0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/RootFS/ - create X11 and kde loopfiles

Hi all, I''m trying to include the ''runt'' gem (http://runt.rubyforge.org/) in my Rails project. I''ve tried a few ways of doing this. I''ve tried installing runt using ''gem install runt'' and then trying to do "require ''runt''" in my environment.rb, and I''ve also tried using the ''vendor

I am planning on using Runt to calculate recurring events. I calculate a Runt object in the view and use it to see if it includes a certain date, which is populates from the database, and display the info for that date if it is included. I have recurring events for every week, which was pretty easy to set up. I can just say: r = Runt::DIWeek.new(4) For a recurring event every Thursday, and

Holding the vblk->lock across kick causes poor scalability in SMP guests. If one CPU is doing virtqueue kick and another CPU touches the vblk->lock it will have to spin until virtqueue kick completes. This patch reduces system% CPU utilization in SMP guests that are running multithreaded I/O-bound workloads. The improvements are small but show as iops and SMP are increased. Khoa Huynh

I''m using the runt library [1] to do some temporal expression matching. I want to keep the expression in a binary field in my db. I figured that then in order to do the fixtures, I''d need to do some erb in the yaml file. So I came up with this: onetime: id: 1 name: One Time description: This event occurs only one time. timex: <%= REYear.new(7) & REMonth.new(24)

I''m working on a project that has event scheduling and I need to get date recurrence going on it. I found the Runt library which looks like it has pretty much everything handled, but I was wondering if there are any tutorials out there for using Runt with Rails, or better yet some helpers or a plugin for it. I tried searching through the mailing list archives, but searching is down

Hi, I am trying to figure out a poor mans install ... I want to be able to boot CD iso thats on my hard disc .. There is an option to install via hard drive .. but I keep getting VFAT16 files system errors .. I know where copied iso image is ... I can boot kernel but linuxrc will not start LiveCD ... Maybe I could rewrite linuxrc to allow this but as it works from ram I am finding hard to

I have a Debian system from a Knoppix distribution. I started out with ext2 but decided to change to ext3. tune2fs -j OK. However the system boots with a warning ....ext3 mounted as ext2. proc/mounts confirms this and no journal is running. So I have to make an initrd. Did so using instructions in the Debian Reference and this did not change anything. Any attempt to use the img produced was a

Dear Readers: I have two issues in nonparametric statistical analysis that i need help: First, does R have a package that can implement the multimodality test, e.g., the Silverman test, DIP test, MAP test or Runt test. I have seen an earlier thread (sometime in 2003) where someone was trying to write a code for the Silverman test of multimodality. Is there any other tests that can enable me to

Is it possible? Booting the installer from the CD works, finds the USB drive, and allows me to put the root filesystem on it. I put the /boot partition on the internal hard drive and installed GRUB in the boot record of that partition. GRUB shows the menu and begins booting, but eventually fails with the error that /dev/sda5 (the external partition) does not exist. I was hoping (perhaps in

I don''t even know if this is possible. I want to use an object as an attribute for one of my classes. I can save it to the db fine, looks like...but I need to be able to use it after I pull the object from the db. Right now the attribute is just a String, but I need it to be a Runt::Intersect object. Does anyone know how I can unserialize the attribute so I can use it as an object?

Hello, I would really appreciate some help/guidance with this problem. First of all sorry for the long message. I would file a bug, but do not know if it is my fault, dm-cache, qemu or (probably) a combination of both. And i can imagine some of you have this setup up and running without problems (or maybe you think it works, just like i did, but it does not): PROBLEM LVM cache writeback
